Breast Care
Paying close attention to your breast health is an important way to care for yourself.
Your Breast Health Matters
Regular mammograms can catch problems early. If you’re due for a screening, have noticed a change, or just have questions, we’re here to help. Referrals aren’t required for patients age 30 and older.
Early Detection Saves Lives
We're here to support your health—and your peace of mind.
Mammograms
A mammogram is an X-ray of the breast that helps us screen for breast cancer. It can find tumors that are too small to feel.
Automated Breast Ultrasound
This screening uses ultrasound to help find cancers in dense breast tissue, which can be missed by traditional mammography.
Diagnostic Breast Imaging
Additional testing, such as diagnostic mammography and ultrasound, may be recommended if your screening mammogram shows something that needs a follow-up.
High Risk Counseling
St. Luke’s High Risk Breast Clinic serves anyone at higher risk for breast cancer. You’ll meet experts in breast health who will provide a complete risk assessment, advise on ongoing breast health surveillance, and recommend follow-up care.

Patient Voices
“Going through treatment helped me understand my patients in a whole new way. I’ve never felt more supported.”
